Someone brought me a liquid metal damaged motherboard.
First I have removed alll liquid metal from the board.
0,75V_ALW was burned, and had to be removed and I have separated the layers until no short was on the VIN (B+) line and the output is no longer shorted.
Applying 0,77V on the output with my lab PSU make the laptop caming on and i running windows from USB drive SSD
There are 2 things that not working.
1. The WIFI card keeps turning off and on with an error code 43 and 10 abouth every 10 seconds
2. nvme devices are not detected on either of the 2 slots.
Is there a possibility that a liquid metal got under CPU or could it be something else?
How should i start to diagnose the slots?
